Program
WEBINAR: across Language Server as a Central Platform for Authoring Assistance

Description
crossAuthor, across Systems' innovative technology, connects the content creation process in applications you are already using like FrameMaker, InDesign, XMetal, Arbortext, etc. to the translation and terminology memory. Across Systems' customers report savings of up to 50% after implementing this tool. Join us to learn:
  • why your translation memory and your terminology database are valuable resources that should not only be used by translators, but also by technical writers
  • how the integration of the translation environment in the editorial environment works (based on an example of crossAuthor for Word)
  • about an easy translation-oriented authoring
  • why efficient translating starts with the composition of the source text
